Extensive colonization with carbapenemase-producing microorganisms in Romanian burn patients: infectious consequences from the Colectiv fire disaster.
Article in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Health care of severe burn patients is highly specialized and may require international patient transfer. Burn patients have an increased risk of developing infections. Patients that have been hospitalized in countries where carbapenemase-producing microorganisms (CPMO) are endemic may develop infections that are difficult to treat. In addition, there is a risk on outbreaks with CPMOs in burn centers. This study underlines that burn patients may extensively be colonized with CPMOs, and it provides best practice recommendations regarding clinical microbiology and infection control. We evaluated CPMO-carriage and wound colonization in a burn patient initially treated in Romania, and transported to the Netherlands. The sequence types and acquired beta-lactamase genes of highly-resistant microorganisms were derived from next generation sequencing data. Next, we searched literature for reports on CPMOs in burn patients. Five different carbapenemase-producing isolates were cultured: two unrelated OXA-48-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates, OXA-23-producing Acinetobacter baumanii, OXA-48-producing Enterobacter cloacae, and NDM-1-producing Providencia stuartii. Also, multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were detected. Among the sampling sites, there was high variety in CPMOs. We found 46 reports on CPMOs in burn patients. We listed the epidemiology of CPMOs by country of initial treatment, and summarized recommendations for care of these patients based on these reports and our study.
